Chapter 1684 – Essence Will, no one’s throne
Nine Heavens Star Realm’s Yellow Soil Star Palace, Stone Demon Peak Stone Heart Cave.
Yang Lizhao, who had received the message, hurriedly came out of the cave in the stone heart. Then, he walked towards the bottom of the Stone Demon peak on foot.
Below the peak of the Stone Demon, An Dapu and Xu Tianxing had been waiting for a while.
This was not An Dapu’s first time here, but Xu Tianxing was on the side, constantly sizing up the entire floating mountain range.
“Sucuge floating mountain range, it is actually formed by the body of a Da Lou Stone Demon? “The might of the Great Luo is amazing! It really is amazing!”
Xu Tianxing had already praised the magnificence of this floating, deep tomb more than once.
An Dapu could not help but laugh at the side: “Alright Old Xu, in a while you can look through the entire Stone Demon Peak. Now that Young Master Zhao has come down, you and I should go see him together!”
“Oh, oh, it’s coming!”
Xu Tianxing hurriedly followed.
Seeing the two from far away, Yang Lizhao apologized: “I’ll have to trouble the two of you to wait for a long time!”
“You flatter me, Young Master Zhao, you’re too polite!”
An Dapu and Yang Lizhao immediately replied.
Yang Lizhao walked up to them and first gave a slight nod of acknowledgement before forming a complicated seal with his hands. Then, he could vaguely sense that the spirit energy around the floating mountain had undergone some miraculous changes. An Dapu and Xu Tianxing simultaneously sensed that an invisible barrier had been opened in front of the two of them.
“Please come in!”
Only after the two of them entered the invisible barrier did Yang Lizhao dispel the hand seal, and the barrier behind him closed up once again. However, it could be seen that it was not an easy task for Yang Lizhao to open and maintain the entrance of the barrier.
Seeing that, Xu Tianxing could not help but praise: “The Jun Shan s’ array dao is unfathomably profound, who would have thought, at that time when the Stone Demon peak was in the process of being formed, Celestial Sovereign already laid down sucrray.”
Yang Lizhao laughed: “This protection array is actually a trick, and it borrowed the strength of a suppressed Stone Demon. It is just that it is a bit inconvenient, because after entering the peak of the Stone Demon, the true essence within their body is severely restricted, such that even flying and escaping is not possible. They can only choose to takike, otherwise the two of you wouldn’t have waited at the foot of the peak of the Stone Demon for so long.”
The two of them said it was fine.
As they were speaking, the three of them had already arrived outside the core cave. This was where the Stone Demon s had used the Sky Breaking Maco pierce through the chest.
After that, because of the assassination attempt by the Yama, had no choice but to leave early, so he handed over the guard to Yang Lizhao.
On a stone platform outside the cave, the three of them sat down.
Without waiting for Yang Lizhao to inquire of the two, An Dapu’s eyes lit up, and praised: “It has only been a few days since Young Master Zhao ascended to the Immortal Realm, I never expected his cultivation to reach sucealm, I never expected that he would reach the peak of Primordial Immortal soon.”
Yang Lizhao heard and sighed. He swept his gaze across the cave and said: “It’s just borrowing the shadow of an elder. It’s not worth looking at.”
After saying that, Yang Lizhao looked at An Dapu with a strange gaze, and said: “Mister An only praised me, but the cultivation aura you have, is even more amazing!”
After saying that, Yang Lizhao’s gaze turned to Xu Tianxing and he said the same thing: “It seems like Mister Xu is only missing the Origin treasure left from the Golden Immortal Realm.”
Hearing this, the two of them looked at each other and revealed bitter smiles.
Xu Tianxing was originally a cultivator that was at the peak of Primordial Immortal, but now that he had accumulated for so many years, his cultivation was even richer. It was just that collecting Origin treasure s was simply too difficult, and he also understood that it was too late.
He had also reached the peak of Primordial Immortal, and especially after the Nine Heavens Demesne, for some unknown reason, even his usual cultivation efficiency had increased by several times over. Now, even he was unable to hide the traces of the immortal elemental energy that was seeping out of his body, and his entire body was likank of water that was about to burst.
In terms of the collection of Origin treasure, although An Dapu was slightly better than Xu Tianxing, the few Origin treasure that he had in his hands were far from enough in terms of quantity, and their quality was also quite average.
Yang Lizhao observed his surroundings and asked: “Are the two of you here today related to this?”
An Dapu cupped his hands together and said: “Good, for Young Noble to know that I and Fellow Xu have three reasons to come here, one of them is to ask Young Noble about the matter of cultivation increase, it is not because of our pretense, but because the speed of cultivation increase is truly unimaginable. “Also, we want to see if Young Master can get some source treasures from the Yang Family. Of course, we will trade them for something of equal value.”
Yang Lizhao laughed bitterly when he heard this, and said: “It’s not that this Yang and my family cherish the broom, it’s just that Origin treasure have always had a price and no market. Not to mention the Western Mountain Madame Yang, no power in the entire Starry Sky world has ever stopped wanting Origin treasure.”
Seeing the two’s faces filled with disappointment, Yang Lizhao squinted his eyes and remained silent for a moment. After a moment, he seemed to have thought of something and spoke: “However, regarding Mister An’s sudden increase in training efficiency, I might know a thing or two.”
Seeing that An Dapu’s attention had been attracted to him, Yang Lizhao turned to Mr Xu and said: “I believe Fellow Xu’s recent cultivation efficiency has also improved significantly, maybe it’s not as obvious as Mister An’s.”
Hearing that, Xu Tiancheng laughed, but he did not refute Yang Lizhao’s guess, and was probably right.
Seeing that, Yang Lizhao continued: “I have heard my grandfather speak before, although the Essence Will of the Nine Heavens Star Realm was quiet, they did not disappear. After the Heavenly Emperor abandons the position of the Sector lord, the Essence Will will ring the bell of the other Nine Heavens Star Realm’s cultivators ….”
As he spoke till here, Yang Lizhao’s tone paused, he looked at An Dapu and said, “Just like back then, when the primordial purple Qi was the first choice, it was one of the strongest cultivators in the Nine Heavens.”
Then he continued, “However, there are some differences. Although Mr Xu has been immortal for a bit longer, he was born a wandering immortal. According to the legends of the Starry Sky Great World, he is called a Rogue Immortal, a Rogue Cultivator who became an Immortal. On the other hand, Mister An was different. Although he came from a rogue cultivator background, he was already a Grandmaster of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect before the Nine Heavens Demesne. He was also quite famous in the entire Nine Heavens Cultivation World. That is to say, the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect is currently one of the few inheritors of the Nine Heavens Cultivator Civilization. From this point of view, Mr. An’s contribution to the Nine Heavens Cultivator Civilization surpasses that of Mr. Xu, and as such, Mr. An’s contribution to the Nine Heavens Star Realm’s Essence Will is even greater, that is to say, the so called ‘Lucky House Bell’. ”
Yang Lizhao’s explanation made An Dapu and Xu Tiancheng understand.
An Dapu laughed: “Fortunately, before this, Fellow Xu has already agreed to help us out. As such, Fellow Xu is no longer an outsider.”
Yang Lizhao’s eyes flashed when he heard this, but there waint of joy in his surprise: “Oh, so it’s like this. I would have to congratulate the two of you.
“Sigh, it’s merely being warmed up by a group. Before the Nine Heavens Transforming World, this old man can roam free and unfettered for a short period of time, and right now, the boundless starry sky has longevity everywhere. I am inferior to a dog, and if I don’t find a large tree to rely on, I’m afraid that I’ll be killed by a single slap from who knows where.”
After saying that, the three of them burst out laughing.
By “big tree”, Xu Tiancheng was naturally not referring to the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect, but the real Western Mountain Madame Yang behind the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect.
After laughing, Xu Tiancheng then said: “Today, after listening to Young Master Zhao’s explanation, I finally understand the reason behind it, it’s just that we cannot touch on the theory of ‘luck’, and cannot listen to it, it’s too mysterious, how can we prove its existence?”
After saying that, the two of them looked at each other, then Xu Tiancheng looked at Yang Lizhao and asked: “Young Noble Zhao, may I ask, regarding ‘destiny’, or rather the ‘will of the world’, has the Jun Shan ever said how to prove its existence?”
At this point, Yang Lizhao roughly understood the two’s true purpose in coming here. It was simply to find out from him how Grandfather was after being assassinated by the Yama.
Therefore, Yang Lizhao smiled and asked: “Is this the last goal of the three that you two just mentioned?”
Xu and An couldn’t help feeling embarrassed.
Although the two of them previously claimed that the Western Mountain Madame Yang was the big tree behind them, if the White Jade Pillar that supported the Western Mountain Madame Yang’s family, the Violet Jade Pillar of the Seas and the Golden Light Pillar, were about to collapse, what else could they do?
Of course, he had to think of ways to clearly investigate the advantages and disadvantages within, and it was best not to make the Western Mountain Madame Yang feel disgusted.
After all, no matter how bad the situation the Western Mountain Madame Yang was, she was still a skinny camel that was bigger than a horse.
Putting everything aside, although the eldest grandson of the Madame Yang’s third generation was not as strong as the two of them, if they were to fight to the death, An Dapu’s intuition told him that the two of them were not the only ones who were alive.
Yang Lizhao was furious at first, but then he thought that if he was in their position, the probing from today would be unavoidable. Aesult, his heart became a lot calmer.
“All of you can be rest assured. After calculating the time, Xishan Dazhou should have also returned to the Western Palace by now. Once Aunt Xiu takes the ark back to the Western Mountain, all of your worries would be for naught!”
Yang Lizhao looked at the two with eyes full of confidence and determination, and said: “I believe it won’t be long before news of Xishan Dazhou’s successful return to the Western Palace will spread, and at that time, I will pass on the message to the two of you.”
Yang Lizhao’s words allowed An and Xu to feel a lot more at ease. The two of them looked at each other, and finally spoke in unison: “Since that’s the case, the two of us will be waiting for her!”
Yang Lizhao saw that the two of them were about to leave, but suddenly thought of something, and said quickly: “The two of you may leave unhurriedly, but there is one thing that I nearly forgot.”
The two of them looked at Yang Lizhao in shock, and asked: “I do not know what business Young Noble Zong has, just instruct me as you wish!”
Yang Lizhao “Hehe” laughed, looked at An Dapu and said: “Didn’t the two of you ask me earlier to verify the existence of ‘Essence Will’? “Just as I thought about it, grandfather really ordered me to give you a method, but I almost forgot about it. However, if I want to verify whether this method is feasible, I need to rely on Mister An’s help like before.”
“Me?” An Dapu was stunned at first, then he seemed to have suddenly realized something, and said with a bitter smile: “It wouldn’t be another immortal equipment like the one used by the Sky Breaking Mace, right?”
Yang Lizhao laughed and asked: “What’s wrong, looks like Master An isn’t willing?”
“Haha, Young Master Zhao misunderstood Old An!”
Xu Tianxing explained with a smile: “It’s not that Old An was unwilling, it’s just that he used the immortal equipment bestowed to him by the Jun Shan. At leashird of the ‘Poison Immortal’ reputation was earned by that immortal equipment.
With that, Xu Tianxing added, “Speaking of which, if fellow cultivator An didn’t have the immortal equipment during the Ten Thousand Immortals Guild, then he might not have been able to win against me! However, right now his cultivation is on a higher level, even without the help of the Jun Shan and the Celestial Sovereign’s immortal equipment, this old man will not be his match. ”
“So that’s how it is!”
Hearing the reason, Yang Lizhao also laughed, and continued, “However, this time is somewhat different. To Fellow Daoist An, perhaps it might be a great opportunity!”
Seeing how serious Yang Lizhao was, An Dapu knew that since it was something that the Jun Shan s had instructed them to do, then it must be something serious, so he solemnly said: “I will do my best!”
Yang Lizhao immediately laughed when he heard it, “There’s no need for Mister An to use all of his strength, as long as it’s something casual, it’s fine.”
After he finished speaking, he ignored the suspicious looking An Dapu and turned around. He made a beckoning gesture at the heart of the cave, only to see a jewel fly out and land in his palm.
An Dapu and Xu Tianxing looked at the pearl separately. The pearl was crystal clear and smooth, but there waurple mist curling inside it, and occasionally there were purple flashes of lightning within the purple mist. At a glance, one would be able to sense the terrifying energy contained within.
“This item ….”
An Dapu slightly hesitated, with one glance, he could tell that this orb was related to lightning, and it just so happened that the lightning attribute sacred art had a certain degree of restraining power towards the poison arts he cultivated.
Yang Lizhao seemed to understand the doubt in An Dapu’s heart, and laughed: “No need to intentionally refine this, Mister An ….”
Hearing this, An Dapu couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief.
However, Yang Lizhao’s next words caused his heart to thump loudly once more, “All you need to do is to immerse this thing in Mister An’s source immortal elemental energy!”
“Ah?!”
An Dapu could not help but let out a surprised cry.
Without waiting for An Dapu to voice his doubts, Yang Lizhao continued, “Mister An, don’t worry. If Mister An really obtains the Nine Heavens Spirit Essence Will’s bell, then a restriction inside the pearl will be activated. At that time, Mister An will receive the inheritance of an Immortal technique.”
After saying that, Yang Lizhao became serious again, and said: “A legacy of an Immortal technique that will not disappoint Mister An!”
extended his hand out to catch it, and the moment he lowered his head to look, the purple mist surrounding the orb suddenly dissipated, and a purple gold eye appeared on the orb’s surface to look at him.
An Dapu let out an “Ah” sound of alarm, nearly throwing the thing in his hand out. The moment he reacted, he immediately clenched his fist, only to find that his palm was empty.
An Dapu hurriedly opened his palm, only to seurplish-gold lightning flash within his palm.
He quickly sent his Spiritual Sense into his body, only to see that within the source of the immortal elemental energy in his dantian, there waearl that was filled with purple mist that was floating …
Even after the two of them had left, when Yang Junshan sent the two of them to the foot of the peak of the Stone Demon, An Dapu still had a look of lingering fear.
After waiting for the two to leave, Yang Lizhao closed the Guard Curtain and returned to the cave in a leisurely manner.
This slightly square looking cave was the wound left on the chest of the stone boy from the Great Luo Spiritual Demons that the Sky Breaking Mace pierced.
After Yang Lizhao walked along the perfectly straight cave entrance for several tens of meters, the surrounding walls had already been completely transformed into bright red crystals.
In the middle of this crystal passage, a throne that was entirely embedded with the five element Origin treasure was placed there. It was the same throne that Yang Junshan had snatched from the Heavenly Emperor of the Master of the Nine Heavens previously, and he could still clearly remember the satisfied expression his grandfather had as he sat on this throne.
Therefore, when Yang Lizhao looked at the empty throne, he suddenly started laughing.
